Easy, if you have a 72 with provisions to accommodate a single wall. Some (many?) do.

Re: Reproduction Single Wall Top

You will have to drill all new holes on your bed rails since the single wall tops have a different hole pattern. You will also have to weld new cage nuts on the underside of the rail where the new holes are unless you want to hold a nut and ratchet under the rail while you tighten the bolt from up top.
